Let's play Peaches on some peaches.

Hot take: Most metal is just Classical Music II Electric Bugaloo.

The nostalgia is the point. Nobody stores crackers in barrels anymore, but everybody did then because it was the best option at the time. Same reason the save icon is a floppy disk.

I'd ask a couple thousand people to guess in private. So the most popular answer would probably be either surprisingly close to correct or Cuppy McHazelnutface.

Same era, I used to playing games on my calculator. I suppose you still can, but I used to do it. I remember I had RISK on my TI-89, but the games on my TI-82 were on par with the version of snake shown in the post. We would even trade the games around with the kids that didn't have a computer and/or Internet at home. We'd connect them with funky little cables that looked like audio jacks.

To be fair, nothing on the face of this box indicates any relation to chocolate anyway, except the company brand by implication. My only other clue as an outsider was that the wording "Dairy Milk" was just a little too weird to be taken at face value.

This example has really bad optics though, unless you're trying to shine a light on medical cartels and their part in the capitalist distopia Americans live in.

The point is that those are 2 separate and distinct units. I'm not saying it's not a valid representation of time. I'm say the units in this case are actually hours and minutes, not only hours. It is compounded by the fact that the title is talking about time in a way that is ultimately also a ratio (something a colon is also used to represent), the ratio of hours on the device to the hours in a day. There were many other ways to represent this data that would have been less ambiguous, more clearly showing real differences at a glance, and paying attention to using more appropriate significant digits.

This place should be called mapshitposting for how often actual map enthusiasts get voted down for pointing out amateur mapping and statistical blunders here.

Wait till they hear about the people farming, harvesting, and shipping the vegetables.

Are these ratios of hours online in a day (3:11 implies 3 out of 11 hours) online per day? That seems unlikely given how difficult comparisons like that would be to make.

That leaves the other option that these "hours" are actually hours and minutes (hours:minutes). But, that option is almost as bad simply because then the map subtitle has lied to us through omission in not mentioning minutes.

This map should have either just shown the number of total minutes or shown the hours in decimal rounded to a sane number of significant digits. Making a distinction of a minute or three amongst such broadly general averages of almost certainly guesstimated numbers self reported in a survey seems a poor choice.

Primates make tools to help eating ants, among other things. It's a bit of an unusual snack, but people eat ants too. We are anteaters? How much of your diet needs to be ants before you're considered an anteater?

Not to be confused with disco snails.
